netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: Drop spurious condition for overlap detection on insertion
Case a1. for overlap detection in __nft_rbtree_insert() is not a valid one: start-after-start is not needed to detect any type of interval overlap and it actually results in a false positive if, while descending the tree, this is the only step we hit after starting from the root. This introduced a regression, as reported by Pablo, in Python tests cases ip/ip.t and ip/numgen.t: ip/ip.t: ERROR: line 124: add rule ip test-ip4 input ip hdrlength vmap { 0-4 : drop, 5 : accept, 6 : continue } counter: This rule should not have failed. ip/numgen.t: ERROR: line 7: add rule ip test-ip4 pre dnat to numgen inc mod 10 map { 0-5 : 192.168.10.100, 6-9 : 192.168.20.200}: This rule should not have failed. Drop case a1. and renumber others, so that they are a bit clearer. In order for these diagrams to be readily understandable, a bigger rework is probably needed, such as an ASCII art of the actual rbtree (instead of a flattened version). Shell script test sets/0044interval_overlap_0 should cover all possible cases for false negatives, so I consider that test case still sufficient after this change. v2: Fix comments for cases a3. and b3.
